Steve, your comments from your stencil vendor are very interesting. Any decent laser cutter automatically cuts a trapezoidal aperture. This is just the nature of the cutting. We have a bunch of lasers (and chem-etch). You have to polish your laser cu

Well...maybe. First you would have to determine what type of trays you have. Conductive, dissipative or non conductive(non static generating). Dissipative would be your best choice. In the charged body model, the sudden discharge through a conduct

I would be afraid to have this kind of basket holding my boards. Yes, in most cases, you would not get damage if the boards were closed inside of a good, metalized (silver colored) ESD protective bag. The problem is that the boards usually have to c

No clean flux is really a misnomer. What is often taken to mean no residue in effect means no visible residue. Because you can't see it doesn't mean it isn't here. Many manufacturers have been through this same learning curve. The goal with a no clea

I think I'll have to get a copy of those specs. This vendor claims that the 40 uG/sq in is IPC class III and is very, very, clean. I would like to show him (or at least upper management)that what he's says just isn't so. Unfortunately, I don't think

Fred, The system will base itself on the information within the GF file. In the GF file you provide the description as to the physical dimensions, features, tolerances and handling for the part. Once the component has picked up the image, it is "see

Jim: Several points: 1 If you�re correct about corrosion of your component leads (which is entirely possible if the leads are steel, as you say), then the AIM 264-5 no-clean may not be aggressive enough to remove the corrosion you are seeing routin

JC: Seen this before, many times. We fixed our problems at the co I work for by giving a packaging specification to our purchasing dept. Took some work but the payoff was pretty big. This document includes such things as orientation,pitch,tape type

well... it might be cheaper. But I think it's a bad idea. First, your operators will hate you by the end of the day with their sore feet, not to mention lost productivity. Second, safety. Even if the plates are connected to ground through a resistor

Hany, John is right! How do I know cause I have a metal wire floor. I was faced with the same problem you are faced with now and the price was up there. I had one advantage, My floors where raised wood when we got the shop. This reduced the fati
